# And each social defect
:05:01
# In my erring fellow creatures
:05:03
# I endeavour to correct
:05:05
# To all their little weaknesses
:05:07
# I open people's eyes
:05:08
# And little plans to snub
the self-sufficient I devise

:05:11
# I love my fellow creatures
:05:13
# I do all the good I can
:05:15
# Yet everybody says
I'm such a disagreeable man

:05:18
# And I can't think why
:05:26
# I'm sure I'm no ascetic
:05:28
# I'm as pleasant as can be
:05:29
# You'll always find me ready
with a crushing repartee

:05:33
# I've an irritating chuckle,
I've a celebrated sneer

:05:36
# I've an entertaining snigger
:05:38
# I've a fascinating leer
:05:40
# To everybody's prejudice
I know a thing or two

:05:43
# I can tell a woman's age
in half a minute - and I do

:05:46
# But although I try to make myself
:05:49
# As pleasant as I can
:05:51
# Yet everybody says
I am a disagreeable man

:05:54
# And I can't think why
:05:56
# He can't think why
:05:59
# I can't think
:06:01
# Why
:06:08
- Monsieur.
- Bonsoir.

:06:12
- Vous avez lá un succés certain.
- Merci.

:06:15
What do you expect me to do?
Kiss the carpenters?

:06:23
Arthur!
:06:27
Let's get him up.
:06:29
Come on, sir.
:06:32
Arthur, take some brandy.
:06:34
What happened? What happened?!
:06:36
Is Doctor Lynch in the house?
:06:42
Listen to this! Today's "Times".
:06:44
"'Princess Ida' will
probably run for a year...

:06:47
...keeping the Savoy treasury
agreeably replete all the while."

:06:51
"All London will flock to hear it."
:06:52
"So will our provincial,
American and continental visitors."

:06:56
"Copies of its words and music
will be sold by tens of thousands."
